  1. I'm going to take a stab in the dark here for you, EII. We've all been in high school, we know what happens there, so I'm going into this little spiel assuming that you all know what I'm talking about. Seeing as how he only shot at one particular group of kids, these were people who probably socially terrorized him. They probably gossiped, spread lies, and slandered his name. He may very well have been attacked physically in locations where he should be safe (the bus, in front of the school, etc.). Apparently these kids were kind of popular, so the rest of the school follows suit (the groupthink mentalities I saw in high school are oddly disturbing). He probably felt isolated and threatened. No other options in his delusional mind, some base instinct kicks in and he turns into a killer. He strikes at the top of the pyramid (popular kids) of his victimization (head of the snake and all that). Suddenly we have a Drowning Pool song on our hands. His mission accomplished, he flees, and turns himself in. Again, that's just a stab in the dark, but it seems to be a pretty common storyline for school shootings. It's a good thing he went to a nice high school. At my alma mater, people might have started shooting back.
  2. Was it authentic? Any proof?
  3. Not just a truther, but a ZOG believer too? For the triple whammy, is he also a black supremacist?
  4. My favorite part of last year's draft was following the ESPN Draft blog and watching Mort report on picks a solid 5 minutes after some of the other guys. Meanwhile, the other ESPN guys would say, "Thanks a bunch, Mort" every time he did it
  5. Not only that, but he was a damn good jurist too. A bright spot in the insanity that was (and still is) the California court system.
  6. It means the Democrats really want Congress to burn in 2014.
  7. I thought they already did one about you:
  8. Watch some network news and then tell me if you actually think it goes without saying.
  9. They still won't confirm that. I think the last time an interviewer asked Bowie about his sexuality, he said something to the effect of, "I did a lot of stuff with my dick in the 70's. !@#$ off and quit asking me about it."
  10. Read it again. Abductions by family members number in the six figures each year. Abductions of infants from health care facilities by strangers number 128 from 1983 through 2011. The point is that the idea that strangers are out to get your kids is almost wholly false.
  11. In turn, to be fair to Jack, there are a lot of abductions of children by family members every year. We're talking six figures. That's why nobody's allowed to remove the child without clearance.
  12. I wouldn't quite call it an "issue," to be fair. From 1983 to 2011, there were 128 abductions of infants from health care facilities by strangers.
  13. Most Hollywood guys probably do/did, if you get right down to it.
  14. Nice reference. Patrick, stop calling me pumpkin.
  15. I think he's getting at a conflict of interest, Adam.
  16. Ahem. It's, "Send lawyers, guns, and money...dad, get me out of this! Hyahhh!"
  17. It's still Gary Cooper for me.
  18. That doesn't surprise me. Thanks for the heads-up, it's been a while since I played around with that data.
  19. Aaaand that dude from The Artist wins Best Actor. Anybody see this movie? I didn't, but I did see The Descendants and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. I'm not usually a big Clooney fan, but his performance was amazing. Same for Gary Oldman in Tinker Tailor. HOLY **** STREEP DIDN'T GET SNUBBED. This makes tonight's wasted hours halfway worthwhile.
  20. Highway robbery. Highway robbery everywhere. Can't wait for Glenn Close and Meryl Streep to get snubbed. I didn't realize people liked "The Help" so much. I thought that movie was awful.
  21. The problem is that the Federal crime stats (UCR in particular) rely on local police reports to the government. That means more paperwork and more time committed to it by local officers, time that could be used to hit the streets instead. And really - how many cops do you know that would rather do paperwork than be out on patrol or assignment?
  22. I realize this is being nitpicky, but I think this is incorrect. I think burial is the preferred method, although I'm pretty sure the Quran doesn't provide any explicit instructions to that point.
  23. The federal government really only collects extensive data on homicides in the U.S. It's possible that they collect citizenship status for other crimes as well, but it doesn't seem likely to me.
  24. He's a county court judge. Who gives a **** about what he thinks?
